As used in Olympic and other professional/competitive lifting events. These bumpers can be dropped from head height - the steel centre hubs are designed for high impact. We've designed these bumpers to handle the rigors of cross training, so they can be dropped on a single layer of 15mm thick rubber flooring for up to 30,000 cycles. This package includes:

Great for athletics training gyms, powerlifting, or healthclubs looking to add a professional lifting set to their range. The 1000lb bar with this set is not suitable for Olympic lifts, but works well for squats, deadlifts, and all other strength training.

We've been supplying bumper plates since 2006, and we've tried all the different designs. High quality plates differ in two main ways:

The use of higher quality virgin rubber

Adequate centre support, i.e. centre hubs

These plates utilise a large central hub to distribute the impact load when the plate hits the floor. These bumpers wont twist/buckle on impact, so the centres won't fall out with long term use. We use high quality rubber which is able to handle multiple impacts in a commercial environment. As a result, these plates are rated for 30,000 cycles.
